Episode description

From Del Boy in Only Fools and Horses, to Detective Inspector Jack Frost in A Touch of Frost, and Granville in Open All Hours – Sir David Jason has been a staple of British television since the 1970s, ranging everything from slapstick comedy, to police drama, and animated hits. Speaking about a life of Plot Twists on screen, he pays tribute to his mentor Ronnie Barker and shares how “The Guv'nor” ceremoniously passed on the baton. David also talks about his enduring love for creating characters (think of the voices of Dangerous, or Mr. Toad) and pitches a new Mission Impossible spin-off to Tom Cruise, in response to the fact that Hollywood is the last thing on his list to conquer.
